Chapter 11: Zombies and the Giant Wave
"Gurabe Degujiu. What brings your ugly mug to this neck of the woods?" Ronin asked mockingly.
"Let's see, you soul perhaps." He said holding up his duel disk.
"Last time we saw you was back in that airplane cargo hold on the way to the World Tournament. You were after our souls then to. Fine, I will duel you. Let's go." Ronin held up his duel disk. A beeping noise could be heard indicating life point being reset.

Both of the players drew five cards off their respective decks. Ronin drew a sixth card from his deck and placed in the monster zone. "I summon my Freezing Beast (1500/1000) in attack mode." A blue monster appeared in Ronin's battle zone. It's body looked as if it was made of ice. "I set one card face down and end my turn."
"Huh, time to show you a thing or two. I draw!" Pulling a card off his deck he placed a monster face down. "Okay water boy go."
"Water boy!" Ronin growled in his throat and drew his card. He pointed to the face down card on Gurabe's field. "Go Freezing Beast, take that card out!" Jumping into the air the ice monster came down on the face down card. It revealed a small purple robed monster with a scythe in hand.
"You know that Spirit Reaper can't be destroyed in battle don't you?" Gurabe laughed as the ice monster crawled back to Ronin's field.
"Still playing with your Zombies I see. Fine make your move."
"Yea, Zombies are gods in this game. I will show you." Pulling another card off his deck the Spirit Reaper disappeared from the field. A large green haired monster appeared on his field. It was wearing a cape with bats flying all around it. It grinned revealing a set of fangs. "I summon Vampire Lord (2000/1500) in attack mode. Go Vampire Lord attack his beast now!"
Flying across the field the vampire punched through the beast. In a roar of pain the ice monster faded from the feild.

"Well I reveal Under Toe! It will destroy all monsters on the field of the same attack or more of a water monster that is destroyed during my turn. Say goodbye to your butt buddy there." Ronin pointed to the Vampire Lord who quickly disappeared.
"Since Vampire Lord damaged you I choose you to send a trap to the grave." Ronin grumbled as he found a trap in his deck and placed it into his grave. "Fine I set one card face down and play Card of Safe Return on my field. End turn."
Drawing his next card Ronin looked at the downed card. "What kind of trap should I prepare for? He could have almost anything." Pulling one card out of his hand he placed it on the field. "I summon Unshaven Angler (1500/1600) in attack mode." A large fishy creature appeared on Ronin's field. It's body was basically it's mouth. "I set one card face down and attack you directly."
Evil laughter poured past Gurabe's lips. His face down card flipped up. "I have placed Impassible Ring!" A large red ring appeared on the field. It hand long, sharp spikes that went all the way through it. "Only a Zombie monster who can't feel pain can get through. For all others they lose 1000 attack."
The large fish monster swam into the ring. Ronin cringed at the sound of the monsters slimy skin being ripped and torn off. It howled in pain (500/1600).

"My turn then." Gurabe laughed as he drew his next card. Suddenly a large coffin appeared on his field. It slowly opened up and rising out of it came the Vampire Lord (2000/1500).
"Wait, how did you bring him back?"
"Your trap Under Toe did. If it is destroyed due to an effect then it comes back during my standby phase. And Card of Safe Return gives me one card when a monster is special summoned from the grave." He pulled another card off his deck. "Next I play Book of Life! I get to revive my Spirit Reaper (300/200) back in attack mode. Next it lets me remove your Freezing Beast from the game. Since a card was special summoned I draw again."
"Damn, he is pulling cards left and right. I can hardly stop him." Ronin bit his lip.
"I switch him to defense mode and attack you Angler now!" The Vampire Lord flew across the field.
"Not yet, I play Dive Deep for Shelter! It works when a Water monster is attacked. It won't be destroyed but I will take damage."

"My turn now." Ronin looked at his deck. "Come on baby." Pulling the card off his deck he smiled as he placed it on his duel disk. "I sacrifice my Angler to summon Levia Dragon Deadalus (2600/1500)." The large blue sea serpent monster appeared on Ronin's field. "As you know Angler allows me to sacrifice it for a two tribute monster. Deadalus attack his Vampire Lord! Torrent Rage!"
The Serpent monster roared and flew across the field bitting down on the vampire.

"I will end my turn then." Ronin said to Gurabe who was still laughing.
"Water boy, you never learn do you. I draw." he pulled a card off his deck. He took a long minuet to laugh before he slid a card into his duel disk. "I play the ritual magic card Hell's Grave Side! I sacrifice my Spirit Reaper, another from my hand, and a Pyramid Turtle (1200/1400) to summon my Hell Grave Digger (3500/3500)."
A large grey man monster appeared. He was bald and had two horns sticking out. He held a demonic looking shovel and he was dressed in a black leather vest with no shirt and a pair of torn pants.
"I can sacrifice his attack if I bring back a monster from my grave. I summon Spirit Reaper in defense mode and draw another card." The large monster stuck his shovel into the ground. It slowly turned over a plot of ground. On the other side was the Spirit Reaper. "I end my turn. Next turn I will defeat you."
Ronin gulped, he knew that it was true. Looking over his hand, he had nothing that could help. He needed a plan and fast. He looked at his deck and prayed. There must be one card that could turn this entire duel around, but what? "Damn it, think. Okay, here I go now." He slowly pulled the card off his deck. He closed his eyes as he held the card up to his face. Slowly opening his eyes he saw a sapphire savior.
"Well water boy, what do ya got?" He asked as he saw Ronin open his eyes. He felt a tingle of fear as he saw Ronin smile.
"I activate Sapphire Crystal!" Jamming the card into the slot, sapphire colored sparks shot out. Deadalus roared and started to squirm about. The medallion around Ronin's neck started to let off a violent aura. The symbol engraved into the medallion appeared on Ronin's forehead. Deadalus roared as sapphire colored spikes shot out of its body. It's entire body was covered in these crystalline spike.
"Sapp...hire.. Crystal?" Gurabe blinked several times looking at the field.
"Yea," Ronin chuckled evilly as he looked up. "Deadalus had transformed into an essence monster. The Sapphire crystal will insure that he will have power far beyond your comprehension. First, it transforms it into an essence monster, next it will give it 1000 attack points (3600/1500), thirdly it will deal damage through defense and finally it unlocks the true power in Deadalus. I get to take a Umi from anywhere in my hand or deck and send it to the grave to destroy all cards on the field but Deadalus Sapphire Mode."
Sliding a Umi he pulled from his deck, Deadalus Sapphire threw back his head and roared. This roar congered up a huge wave that blaster over the entire field. The water settled on the floor and started to slowly disappear. The only thing that was left was Deadalus Sapphire.
"Go my monster, rip him limb from limb! Essence Torrent Rage!" Roaring the sapphire beast charged across the field towards Gurabe. Stepping back, Gurabe tried to get away form the attack but there was no way to escape in the shadow realm Just as Deadalus went to bite down, Gurabe disappeared by sinking in the floor. The monsters powerful jaws sanpped only on air.

The shadows started to disappear from the field leaving Ronin standing by the trash can. The symbol on his head slowly disappeared as his duel disk deactivated. Holding up the card, just like Reku's it read: Oracles Rage Incarnate Seal of Power-Sapphire Crystal. "Yea, Sapphire Crystal is much easier to say. I am not even sure what that means." Glancing at his watch he suddenly started to panic. "Shit I am late for class. " He took off running towards the building.
